This move isn&rsquo;t injury-related but rather a strategic decision to give Ullmark a night off after handling seven straight starts. Merilainen will back up Forsberg for Ottawa&rsquo;s matchup against the Flyers.<\/p><p>With the post-trade deadline roster limit lifted, the Senators have more flexibility in managing their lineup. However, calling up Merilainen counts as one of their four standard recalls since it doesn&rsquo;t qualify as an emergency move. Despite this, the team sees value in giving their young netminder NHL exposure.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Senators?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@Senators<\/a> have recalled goaltender Leevi Meril&auml;inen from the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BellevilleSens?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#BellevilleSens<\/a> in today's Top Pick Painters Transaction. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3PxMXkTwfx\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/3PxMXkTwfx<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Belleville Senators (@BellevilleSens) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BellevilleSens\/status\/1899527828166611193?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>March 11, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>At 22, Merilainen has already turned heads with his performance this season. In 11 starts and one relief appearance for Ottawa, he has posted a stellar .925 save percentage and 1.99 goals-against average. His strong play has positioned him as the team&rsquo;s third-choice goaltender, ahead of Mads S&oslash;gaard.

However, for now, he will remain in a backup role and likely return to Belleville soon.<\/p><p>Looking ahead, Meril&auml;inen&rsquo;s recall raises questions about Ottawa&rsquo;s goaltending future.
